Beautiful work on the shading and excellent application of the Uschi decals, K.  The color of the wood is perfect.  Outstanding work all around.
Cheers,

You have some mad skills! Attaching the top wing first is a novel approach. I may give that a try myself.

Thanks guys for the support ;)

Hey Rob, this top wing first approach is not my property ;D I have read sb advice and it sounded fair. It is really worth of doing

regards

Hello KrzysiekK:
Your Albatros really turned out fantastic.  I like that version, the swirls, the Polish markings all make for an intersting scheme.  Your shading, attention to detail and craftsmanship are truly outstanding.  I wish this version of the Albatros was available in 1/32nd.

Best

..the second bird has already bacame biplane. The whole assemble and positioning action went a lot better than with BM. Eduarrd is well-placed and both pyramid and V columns easily arranged in their places. Rigging is done (I have to improve my mental state taking some fokker kit in the nearest future). Some few details left for finishing the whole project, which constitutes some obstacle for me as the pressure to finish the project is literally unbearable. The main shortcomings are the undercarriage and the exoust pipes.
